Issues for Consideration  Focus Abbreviations for academic titles, clinical licenses, and certifications used as a suffix with a person’s name  Specificity Written Address ex., John Smith, PHD; Jane Doe, RN  Applicable Standards/References HL7 v2.5  Out of Scope Titles as suffixes such as an individual’s genealogy, military, and religious titles Titles as prefixes such as prefix or courtesy titles Board Certifications/Credentialing Organizations Honorifics (e.g. Esq.)

Use Case Analysis  Purpose of Standard: Capture of formal educational or professional titles as an abbreviated suffix to a person’s name  Use/Applications: Firebird HL7 v2.5
